So close together and yet so far apart
In the very Nsfw short film Disarm, a young man meets up with an older, handsome trick for a simple hookup. But when initial passion turns to violence, violence turns to understanding, and an unexpected connection.
Sometimes it's easiest to talk to a stranger about things that are deeply personal. And seeing the generation gap here allow two strangers to give voice to their own pain, from a youth of bullying, to how they shield themselves as adults, is powerful. We all carry pain that drives our actions, and sharing that pain can bring a release that's more powerful than just sex from a random hookup.
The film won the My Queer Award at the Sydney Mardis Gras Festival in 2010, and it's easy to see why. Actors David Kinsman and Taris Tyler display a cocky vulnerability that draws you into the film.
